Hello !
I just started with the SDK and everything works fine, unitil I have now 5 Linker errors.
I use C++.NET 2003, the SDK 1.1.1 beta and DirectX SDK October 2005 and the path setup look exactly to the description in the manual of the SDK.
The errors are the same at the Darks SDK example Daek Dungeon and in my own setup project:
1.
error LNK2019: Symbol '_CLSID_DxDiagProvider', at function '"public: long __thiscall CDxDiagInfo::Init(int)" (?Init@CDxDiagInfo@@QAEJH@Z)'
2.
error LNK2019: Symbol '_DXFILEOBJ_SkinWeights', at function '"bool __cdecl XFILE_GetMeshData(struct IDirectXFileData *,struct sFrame *)" (?XFILE_GetMeshData@@YA_NPAUIDirectXFileData@@PAUsFrame@@@Z)'
3.
LNK2019: Symbol '_DXFILEOBJ_XSkinMeshHeader', at function '"bool __cdecl XFILE_GetMeshData(struct IDirectXFileData *,struct sFrame *)" (?XFILE_GetMeshData@@YA_NPAUIDirectXFileData@@PAUsFrame@@@Z)'
4.
error LNK2019: Symbol '_IID_IDxDiagProvider', in function '"public: long __thiscall CDxDiagInfo::Init(int)" (?Init@CDxDiagInfo@@QAEJH@Z)'
5.
error LNK2019: Symbol '_main', in function '_mainCRTStartup'

My question is now: is there someone else who had the same linker errors or what else could be the problem ?

Thanks

These linker errors are due to MS changing things in more recent versions of the DirectX SDK. I suggest you use the DirectX SDK from February 2005 which should be fine.

We will be updating the SDK very soon and I will test that things are okay with the more recent DirectX SDKs.

Thanks for the quick answer !
In the meantime I have downloaded still the newest DirectX SDK from December 05, in the hope to fix the problems with this one.
Now I start with the old one from February last year.

So I suggest to update the Dark SDK for the latest DirectX SDK.

Thanks
Norman

You know, I'd swear I'm using DirectX SDK Dec 05 and yet I can compile with the SDK just fine

I'd better check that out

@South Wind:
I would try the December 05 version first, since it works fine for me too!

Thanks guys for the help!
With the December 2005 version of the Direct SDK there were no more problems in compilation of the Darg Dungeon example.
Only to fix me project setup for working, I had to change additonal a lof of the project settings to the same as used in Dark Dungeon, because the standard settings of the VC++ 2003 are not compatible.

It would be helpful for beginners of the Dark SDK to add this to the documentation.

But anyway, now everything is working fine.

You could post it here on the forums? Either way I'm curious what settings you changed.
